Referrals are issued by a PCP and are typically only active for 6 months from the date they are signed.

If 6 months has passed since the date your referral was signed by your PCP, a new referral will be required.

Authorizations are requested by a PCP from the insurance company and will include a “start” and an “end” date and a specified number of visits.

Once the visits are all used or the end date arrives, whichever happens first, then a new Authorization will need to be obtained from your PCP.

If you are unsure if you need a Referral and/or Authorization to see Dr. Pittle (a Foot Specialist), please call the Member customer service phone number found on your insurance card – or you can contact our office and we will do our best to assist you.

In order to keep wait times to a minimum, we do NOT recommend that you arrive more than 20 minutes before your scheduled appointment time. Patients are typically seen in the order of their scheduled appointment times.

If you need to re-schedule your appointment, please give us at least 24 hours notice. There may be a charge for appointments cancelled with less than 24 hours notice.
